Does your SL do this?

While running, when I put it into reverse the rear squats some and when it goes into drive it squats more.

Is this normal and do yours do it to?

Thanks

They all do it -- it's caused by the independent rear suspension. Solid-axle rear wheel drive cars & trucks don't do it that much.

Amen to that, brother.

And remember, when it comes to mechanics, a little knowledge on your part is a BIG money saver...
